This is due to custom water texture files. Many options out there, free or commercial. My personal favorite is the zinertek ultimate water advanced.

This isn't really sun glare, since it's un-ticked in the Config then it's doubtful that it's operational. If you look closely, you can tell that this problem is only affecting the water textures. Look to the land at the top right, the problem doesn't exist there.Have you installed any 3rd party addons that perhaps change the look of the water textures?? If so i'd uninstall it again and see if the problem stops. Sam

I had a similar problem with REP. I never could solve it, even with lots of very generous help here over several weeks...I finally just gave up and just delt with it...Now that I have a new power packed computer, I don't worry about i as I did not install REP. :>)That's no to say anything good or bad about REP. That was just my experience..Wish I knew how to advise but...
